Nvidia control panel option for the card specs?

Q:Nvidia control panel option for the card specs?

Do you see an option in the Nvidia control panel for the card specs / increasing clock freq, fan info, etc?
(it is set to Advanced mode)
I removed .75, rebooted into plain VGA and put these new ones on and did another reboot - but i dont see all the info that I used to see previously...?

I recommend downloading and running DAP. It can help sort out any driver and firmware related issues on your system

It's worked out well for many of us in the past.

You can download it direct from this link http://downloaddap.org. (This link will open the download page of DAP so you can save a copy to your computer.)

A: Nvidia control panel option for the card specs?

Cards ID and driver versions should still be there. Increasing clock freq, fans etc is handled by a seperate program - nVidia System Tools with ESA Support. Reinstall this program.

A:Dual GTS 450's in SLi. Option does NOT appear in nVidia Control Panel.

For starters you cannot run SLI on an AMD chipset, you need a motherboard with a Nvidia chipset. Short of replacing your motherboard or running a single card, there isn't much you can do other than returning the cards and going with a single card or getting two AMD cards to run in Crossfire if you want dual cards.

Personally I would return them and go with a single card. For what you paid for those two (or at least the price on Newegg at the moment) you could have got a GTX 470 or HD 6950, either of which performs about the same (or a bit faster in some cases) as 2 GTS 450's in SLI.

I have a Dimension 4600, a 350w PSU, 2.5 GB of DDR-SDRAM, and a PNY Verto 7600 GS 512 MB AGP (I might upgrade to an XFX Geforce 7600 GT, but I am not sure if I will get enought money for Christmas for a new 430 Antec PSU if I need one). I got the card in August 2007, and I have been playing BF2 on my Dimension 4600 since August 2005.

Recently I was playing BF2 and the graphics were and generally are set at High with a Display setting 800 x 600 at 60 Hetrz, and on one of the rounds I noticed some of the scenery was becoming blured and distinct lines weren't showing up. So I disconnected from the game and turned off then on Anitializasing to 4x which was what I was used to playing at. It told me to restart the game to apply the settings. The anitializasing settings in the game can't be applied for some reason since then. So I have been using my Nvidia control Panel to change the setting for Battlefield 2.

Nvidia Control Panel Settings: Program Overide Settings for Battlefield 2:

My XP machine recently had a DVD drive failure that caused it to not boot, but my first reaction, based on getting a "Video cable connected?" message on the monitor led me to believe that the video card had gone south, so I purchased a PNY nVidia GeForce FX 5200 video card. I just got the computer up and running after installing a new DVD drive. I downloaded the latest driver for the video card, and everything seems to work except when I click the Systray nVidia icon and select nVidia Control Panel, it goes nowhere. I have tried nVidia's site, and they tell me to go to the manufacturer. So I go to PNY's site, and they provide no support beyond their knowledge base, which contains nothing about this issue (really poor support; this will be my last purchase of a PNY product).

Anyone have a clue as to why I cannot open the nVidia control panel?

A:Solved: nVidia graphics card -- won't display control panel

For any who viewed this thread, the problem has been solved. I wound up uninstalling the video card from Device Manager, uninstalling the drivers, and reinstalling the same (most up-to-date) drivers, and the problem went away.

A:new XPS 8900 with gt730 card shows msg. in Nvidia control panel

Cards become legacy and at that point the Latest and Greatest Driver DOES NOT RECOGNIZE the card. Windows 10 is Directx 12 and that leaves tons of cards behind. You must see if your card is listed under "SUPPORTED PRODUCTS"GeForce Game Ready DriverVersion 375.70 - WHQLRelease Date Fri Oct 28, 2016Operating System Windows 10 64-bitLanguage English (US)File Size 373.3 MBhttp://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3473http://www.geforce.com/drivers/results/110603

I have a new T470p running Windows 10 Enterprise x64 Build 16296. In Device Manager I can see 2 display adapters, an "Intel HD Graphics 630" and an "NVIVIDA GeForce 940MX". After updating the NVIDIA drivers to v22.21.13.8205 when I start the NVIDIA Control Panel applet I get the following dialog: Previously the applet would open normally. Any ideas as to how to get the applet to open normally?

I've had this P40 a year or so with no issues. Discovered some sluggish graphics performance, checked to make sure nvidia was being used, and it wasn't. Went to change the nVidia settings and there was no nVidia control panel in my menus. Tried installing the latest drivers for the Quadro M500M. Uninstalled all nVidia drivers and software, directories (in C:\ and in Program Files) and installed selecting the "clean installation" option. Nothing I do will bring the nVidia control panel back. The whole reason I purchased this was the Quadro support. Outraged I just paid for another year of warranty only to find out that doesn't cover software issues at all. Anyone have a suggestion? Before I sell this and buy a machine from a brand with better support while under warranty.

I have been trying to get bluetooth to work on my computer but keep failing.

When I went here ...

A:No Bluetooth Option in Control Panel

Hello Dezzmo, Welcome to TSF!

Have a look at this article... A User's Guide - How to navigate the Windows XP Control Panel.
(Click the coloured link.); then, scroll down to around Figure 20: and I think you will find the answer, under Portable Media Devices.

Quick question, i am using a ATI radeon 700064mb pci and i was wondering what is the difference between, Display:

Plug and play = (name of card)

and

Default plug and play = (name of card)

What happens when i put it on default, more graphics, sound better, faster load times , what?

thanks.

A:Question about an option in my control panel

Hi U2K,
My guess is probably nothing. If the default means regarding a monitor that doesn't return a plug and play code to the os, it only allows the most common refresh rates at common resolutions.
If the card identifies the monitor properly, it should disable any resolutions or refresh rates that that specific mon can't or shouldn't run.

1. When trying to open existing or new graphic email attachments, the following error message appears: "This file does not have a program associated with it to perform this action. Create an association in the Folders Option control panel." Where do I find this?2. Have not been able to download Adobe Flash Player. Each time I click "Download" nothing happens. Could the Norton security program be part of this problem?

A:Folders Option control panel

Right click on the attachment that won't open and 'save as', save to your desktop. Right click the file and go to 'open with' and choose which program you would like to open the files as a defualt. Make sure the 'Always use the selected appication for files of this type' checkbox is checked and open. Now when you open the attachment in outlook, it should load in the application you selected.For Flash, go to www.adobe.com and search for standalone flash install. You should find the download page and be able to download a setup file to run locally which shouldn't be affected by norton or any other programs,Hope this helps,Stu.

My Control Panel has for some unknown reason changed from showing the Icons and Titles in rows, left to right to a single column list. I cannot get it to view in the manner I prefer (left to right in rows). There used to be a clickable way to change it back and forth but nothing is allowing that change anymore.Edit addition: I also notice that in Control Panel I no longer have a "Display" icon.

Recently I started getting the message "This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Create an association in the Folder Option Control Panel" when trying to access several files such as Favorites, shortcuts, my databases, etc. and I don't know how to eliminate the error messages. Any help?

I have been trying to solve a Zone Alarm problem, but the fix seems to have turned into a Windows problem. I hope someone can help me.

I've used ZoneAlarm Security Suite for several years now, but during the past year I have been unable to install upgrades. Usually the process gets stuck during the uninstall of the old version. SO this time I tried to manually uninstall first. It seemed to work (via Add/Remove Programs) and then I tried installing the new version, but it got stuck while copying files over.

On the Zonealarm Forum I got some help from someone who gave me some instructions to follow to "completely" uninstall all zonealarm (zonelabs) files. Following these instructions (which I'll post below) appeared to have removed Zonealarm, but I still could not install the new version - it got stuck at the exact same point while copying files over.

So now I don't have the old version and can't install the new version.
Now to the Windows problem. (Thanks for your patience)

Everything else on my PC seems to be working fine. Email, internet, other programs...but then I went to use Photoshop Elements and it started up by showing me the user license and asking for acceptance (which it hasn't done since I installed it over a year ago).

A:Missing Add/Remove option in Control Panel

Hello and welcome to TSF

Click Start, Run and type REGEDIT. This starts the Registry Editor. Navigate to:

Double-click NoRemove (REG_DWORD) and set it to 0
Double-click NoModify (REG_DWORD) and set it to 0

If NoRemove is set to 1, the Remove button will be unavailable
If NoModify is set to 1, the Change button will be unavailable
info

This should help with Adobe Photoshop Elements.

Now, for ZA.

Try using the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility. As long as you installed the application using the Windows Installer, this utility will remove all the folders, files, registry keys, and entries from your system and allow you to start over with a clean slate.

Download the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
Locate and run msicuu2.exe to install the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility.
Locate and launch the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility on the Start menu.
From the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility window, locate the application in the list and click the Remove button.
Once the application has been removed, click the Exit button to close the utility.

Hi, I came across this issue while trying to solve another, the issue of the annoying on-screen caps lock indicator (solved using this method). Many of the solutions I found involved going to control panel-->Display and choosing "Advanced settings" or right click on desktop-->screen resolution-->advanced settings. My computer does not have a "Display option" in the control panel:It also does not have an "Advanced settings" or similar option in the display settings in the settings menu/through right clicking on the desktop and selecting screen resolution. Why is it seemingly impossible for me to edit anything to do with the display beyond a very basic level? Thanks.

I have XP Home SP3 generally running quite nicely but the other day I noticed when I opened Control panel that the Task Pane no longer gives the option of viewing it in either Classic view or category view.

I have it set for classic view as this is my preference. So there is no problem from my angle. It's just not possible to switch back to category view if I ever choose to in the future.

Kelly's Korner gives a tweak to set the view either way but this does not reinstate the option on the task pane.

Just in case someone is going to suggest it, No I can't do a system restore because it is turned off.

I would like to uninstall a number of programs which I think may be running on start up - the problem is there is no uninstall option when I click on the program in the control panel there is no uninstall option in the program group. Some programs have this option - some dont.

The programs include Yahoo Messenger, McAfee Anti Virus, Norton Internet Security and a few more.

hey guys. i was looking around for some help with this..i installed windows 7 and no control panel. please dont say i didnt search..cause i did

nVidia Control Panel

i uninstalled current drivers and installed the 185.85 as recommended. I have a 9800gtx and when i try to install the control panel it says "setup failed to read Display Driver to be used with this package". I read that i should temporary disable winrar, which i did. also, i saw on the post that the data should be in .cab not .rar, which they are.

help me please =)

A:NVIDIA control panel help.

Unless there is more to it than I can visualize in my brains, disabling (can you even do that? heh heh) Winrar has no affect on anything to do with NVidia, drivers or your video card.

I suggest you Google for how to clean your system of NVidia files and uninstall NVidia driver.

Based on your reading, when you are satisfied your system is "clean", then reinstall the driver by running the .exe.

Had a question...the nvidia control panel when i try to open the desk top part of the control panel it crashs the program... I am try to run my daul screens at two different res. But apparently i need to do it through Nvidia control panel ?????? Is there a fix to stop the desktop portion of the nvidia control panel from crashing it self????? Thanx in advance ....

Hello Kodiak420!

The Nvidia Control Panel follows with your Graphic Driver. Try reinstalling your Driver by using Nvidia Uninstaller (uninstall from your control panel as we know!)

Warning
Your resolution will change after you restarted your computer, it's all normal because Windows 7 is using the default driver

Tip
If you want to clean leftover files use the popular software, Driver Sweeper

Drivers - Clean Left over Files after Uninstalling

If you don't want to uninstall your driver, i'm sure there's some members having other suggestions for you!Hope this helps.

Hi,I always changed those Perfomance and Quality thingies, but never noticed a difference, what does it change?I mean, those 32xq Anti-Aliasing, never seen a difference.

Is there a performance change?Like, 2 times faster , or??

A:Nvidia Control Panel

I've only noticed slight differences with some games and programs. When using the advanced settings there is a tab for application specific settings and I think those settings override the global settings. Unless your using the slider (basic panel).

I've also noticed that the older the game the less impact your settings seem to have. Like with Doom3, I cant change/improve the quality no matter what settings I use in the CP. I do notice a change in FPS in the game. But visualy, I cant see a difference.

I would be currious to hear some more detailed and accurate info from other users.

Also I'll mention I have the nvidia service set to manual. Im not sure how much impact if any that has.

Hi,
Recently I have noticed that my nvidia control panel doesn't reconise my games! It used to until I installed the new 180.48 driver set. I have tried to add to it making sure I choose a .exe file but nothing seems to happen.

I know this doesn't make a huge difference but squeezing a few more fps is alway a bonus.

Any ideas?

A:Nvidia control panel

probably have to unlock it through regedit. google it, there are walk throughs out there.

I have recently updated the driver for my graphics card and suddenly find I have two NVidia control panels installed!version 2.7.13.16 and version 7.2.710The latest one doesn't seem to operate properly, just tells an earlier version exists. How can I remove the older version OR remove the latest version. I don't want two and barely use it anyway!

I'm running on the 91.47 drivers from Nvidia for my 7600GT card and the problem I have is that the Gamma setting will not stay set. Everything else like the brightness, contrast, etc, etc, all stay the same. But the Gamma setting always goes back to -8 when I reboot.would use the latest drivers but shortly after installing the latest ones, I installed The Sims 2 Bon Voyage (few days after the drivers) and after playing it for the first time, I rebooted and got a "DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL" and had to format because no solutions worked. Any ideas?

A:Nvidia Control Panel

after using the nvidia control panel to make your screen adjustments, save it as a profile and set that profile to be the default. Check in your display section inside your control panel that everything is a match to what you set nvidia to, and make sure in msconfig that nvidia is set to run at start up, i think its called nview.exe or nwiz.exe

i lost my nvidia control panel. i discovered that by trying to change my display settings. i went to there web site for help and it is confusing trying to get a step by step fix for this. it is an nvidia geforce gts 450. would uninstalling and re-installing the drivers fix this? is there a specific driver for this control panel?thank you pothound

A:nvidia control panel

The control panel comes with the driver. You could try reinstalling the driver.

So i just bought the Nvidia 3d kit with the glasses and the little 3d monitor! However something seems to be going wrong when i work with it, whenever i try to install the drivers i get this problem, it simply won't allow me to!

ImageShack? - Online Photo and Video Hosting

It simply says

"Installer can not continue

I've tried to reinstall and rebooting my pc, but nothing seems to be working for me..!

That your NVIDIA driver software is not install properly. Uninstall current driver software and install your operating system supported driver.and if after this process you face same problem then update your driver software.

I am having an issue with nvidia control panel 2.5 and an xp machine with a geforce 6200 by bfgtech.

The problem is that I cannot access the "manage custom resolution" feature in where I should be able to define my resolution wanted and force the resolution.

The reason for this is so that I can use this machine as a media box. It has s-video out and digital audio output so its good to go. The allowed resolutions are not cutting it as they don't display correctly when it is plugged in to the tv. It works but everything looks fuzzy.

I have another laptop with s-video out and it has nvidia control panel 2.2. I was able to select the 720 by 480 resolution which works perfectly with my tv. The tv is a regular 50 inch projection tv using an s-video cable.

Nothing happens when I click on Add/remove programs in Control Panel.
I am also getting a dialog box at the end of log in saying" Error loading C:\Windows\System32\NvCpl.dll. A dynamic link library initialisation failed.

So all of a sudden I can't connect to the Internet. I have my wifi switch on my laptop turned on, I've done everything so far so I could get my wifi back on, but it just won't happen. I've rebooted my laptop three times already, did the same thing with the modem, and nothing.Refreshed and still nothing.I've uploaded an image so to have a clearer picture of things. Hope it helps.Please help. I need internet on my laptop.My OS is win7

I have a Creative Labs and a Logitech z-5500 5.1 sourround system. Originally, everything worked fine so I know this is not a hardware problem. I've recently had to reinstall Windows 7 Ult 64, and now I'm only getting stereo sound out of my 5.1 system. Going into Sounds/Diagnostics in control panel I see there's only an option for STEREO, not 5.1 Surround. When I go to the Creative diagnostics and switch from 2/2.1 sound to 5.1 sound, the drop down menu immediately switches back to 2.1. Any suggestions on how to get my sound system fully functioning? I've disabled the onboard sound in the BIOS of my motherboard and made sure the connectors are installed correwctly.

Thanks!

Hello I've been looking through some old threads and have seen similar problems as to the one I am having, however they mostly are trying to install a new driver or another problem is holding them up. I am just trying to explore the NVIDIA control panel as I am learning more and more about computers, but have hit a road block with the NVIDIA control panel. When I try to access it this is the error message that shows up:

These are the specs (I believe still learning things) of the display (1st pic)I also looked at the drivers and the only one that had NVIDIA associated with it was turned off, not sure if that has to do with it or if I even have the correct driver(s) installed(2nd pic)

hello sir, i asking for your help .i have just installed nvidia . when it done, i open my nvidia control panel , there is a line and blur in nvidia logo, i cannot play any game now .can you help me how to fix it ?

I went to their site, got the 195.62 version window 7 x64 (I have windows 7 x64 installed) it would download a bit and then My screen would go black and a lil music note would play, my screen would turn on after it ends and the installing window would finish but it would say:

InstallShield Wizard Complete
The system has not been modified. To install this program at a later time, run the installation again.

Click Finish to exit the wizard

I quickly assume, maybe something is blocking it? , I disable my firewall, my AV and it's firewall, and User Account Control Settings, I lowered it to Never notify.

I rebooted, tried again, same thing happens. So I thought maybe it isn't comparable? but I have a GTS 250 NVIDIA geforce, with windows 7 x64, and downloaded the one with those specifications ofc.

Not only that but from the beginning I couldn't view NVIDIA control panel either.

I been thinking of maybe erasing my NVIDIA drivers and reinstalling, but I'm afraid it won't download or "allow" me to download the driver of NVIDIA to make my graphic card work as it is now...

Basically here's my problem. I'm trying to open the Nvidia Control Panel, and it crashes and gives me the option to check for solutions online.. and Nothing seems to get the Control Panel to open.

Yes, I've done a Re Install of Drivers, I've updated and tried the 180.43, 44, 48 and then just did the 181.20's. Still doesn't work. I was then told that the 185 extreme G drivers helped someone with same problem. So I just barely installed those, with NO luck. It's still crashing. Basically I just got my new GTX 260 today and I now can run SLI, but I can't get the darn control panel open to enable SLI... I'm going crazy here.

I googled the problem, and someone suggested I delete the nvapps.xml folder in the actual driver file location and then reinstall. I tried that as well.

If ANYONE has any idea's on how to fix this I'm very open to suggestions. I've just installed NV system Tools, but if it's anything like nTune I don't want it near my system. lol.
